Without any content additions for those who have already explored every alley in Los Santos, this version of GTA V may not be enough for veterans, but it remains a true masterpiece in the new generation. It also supports 60 fps or the ultra-high definition in 4k, making it the best possible way to enjoy this great criminal journey.

Into its 3rd generation and GTA V is still printing money for Rockstar. The new generation version is not as jaw-dropping as it was almost a decade ago, but it is the best way to play it if you are one of the very few who hasn't already; And even if you did, the current discounted price might tempt you to give it another try anyway.

‎Grand Theft Auto V is The Sandbox, a magnum opus to which the adjectives fall short and which reaches the new generation with the necessary improvements to make the sandbox that Rockstar always wanted.‎

Overall, the GTA V is one of the better, if not straight, best port games of the old generation. Although you can still see that it is a port, 1080p resolution, new textures, effects and even the new FPS mode nicely enhance the original title. If you haven't played the game on old consoles, you'll definitely enjoy it here.

ither way, the PC version offers a definitive version of the game with everything that belongs to it. And so with a massive campaign that will take you 30 hours, dozens more hours in side tasks, extensive GTA Online mode, plenty of options, and even Heist with collaboration tasks.

Before the premiere, I had mixed feelings. I knew a little bit of rockstar news would add up, but I had concerns about whether I would be able to pull in as much as on ps3. A few nights later, I find that I got even more drawn.

The new version of Grand Theft Auto V is still an excellent production, one of the best that has been created in recent years, and at the same time so restored to screw us into the fun for the second time. Rockstar did it again!

‎Without a doubt, the 1-year and 7-month wait was successfully concluded. ‎‎Grand Theft Auto V‎‎, in its own right, is a masterpiece that will remain within the list of the best productions for years, perhaps decades. The new version for PC arrives to affirm what we already knew: here everything looks better and it is the definitive version of a great classic of our times. ‎‎Grand Theft Auto V‎‎ for PC is a must-see for other studios that intend to develop PC games; it's a look at the future of the platform, its capabilities and scope. Competition in the future will be based on who achieves better optimization and options for the user. ‎‎Grand Theft Auto V‎‎ delivered and far exceeded what we expected. We do not hesitate to recommend it.‎

Given Rockstar's reputation for creating controversial content with satirical tones and sharp social commentary, it should come as no surprise that GTA V carries all the classic hallmarks of this developer, and does it times better than before. Its graphic content might turn you away, but if you take the time to dig in a little deeper, you will find that GTA V is a worthy descendant of the previous games as it carries all the classic hallmarks - it is sharp, witty, intelligent, and just the right shade of nasty -, and is a true inspiration for future open-world action adventure games.

Playing GTA V on Xbox One brought me to relive the magnificence of this extraordinary game where you can wreak destruction and mayhem in a huge setting full of traffic, policemen, pedestrians, cats, mountain lions, deer, and coyotes that you can throw into pleasure in escaping the law in any of dozens of luxury cars you buy or steal in the game. If you did not have a chance to play it in the past generation, the new version will leave you open-mouthed and if you did, it will probably amaze you too, although the surprise will quickly fade, when you realize that you are doing exactly the same missions.

I am hopeful that given time, the multiplayer portion will become a better experience. Its status does little to detract from the single-player portion of the game, which is finally free from the shackles of console-based hardware. The title is a beauty to behold when it's cranked up all the way, and it'll likely run on a pretty wide range of hardware. The PC version may not have any new content, but it hits the platform in an extremely polished way. It won't change your mind about the game if you've already played it on another platform, but it certainly cements itself as a fantastic version of an entertaining game.

The next-gen variety of 'Grand Theft Auto V' is unequivocally a rerelease, increasingly common for the gaming industry. However, a notable amount of work and care has been put into its development, specifically with the first-person mode, and this makes for an even better 'GTA V.' As much as I appreciate the first-person mode, enhanced graphics, and other little things, this version is best for those gamers who missed last year's release. It's still one of the best games to be found on the Xbox One.

While some of these issues are understandable for the last gen platforms to have, there is no excuse for the developer to waste the new hardware's horsepower and release the game running only at 30fps. All the new graphical effects won't mean much in the end if the core gameplay suffers. As far as sandbox crime games go, Grand Theft Auto V is an incredible achievement in world building, and comes recommended, but just don't expect the best action.

So, Grand Theft Auto V finally is available for the PC and thankfully Rockstar took the time to do it right. Taking the additional time to ensure that the game runs smoothly, beautiful and fast should make players accept the large amount of time it took for it to be released.

Fantastic visuals and enhanced AI behaviour makes the virtual world of San Andreas come to life, and the Rockstar Editor is a powerful tool for machinima creators. It really is the definitive version of a modern classic.

It doesn't matter if it's your first time visiting Los Santos or if you're thinking of booking a return flight, we give GTA V our highest recommendation. This is simply a marvelous game.

Grand Theft Auto 5 on the new platforms is a great comeback for the already impressive game. The first-person view mode, the enhanced visuals, and the many different smaller alterations transform the game into an even better experience. However, lingering problems with the gameplay and a few visual issues keep it from achieving perfection.

Grand Theft Auto V really surprised me. For a series I have had very little interest in the past outside an appreciate for technical proficiency, I found myself drawn into a world where lots of bad things happen to a good number of people - and I was often the one perpetrating these crimes. Call it self-aware social criticism or a guilty pleasure, Grand Theft Auto V proves to be a great deal of fun.
